Net Price Calculator

The Financial Aid Net Price Calculator provides a financial aid estimate for prospective full-time, undergraduate students. By answering a few simple questions, the calculator will present you with an estimate of your full-time 2024–2025 cost of attendance and financial aid eligibility at UC San Diego.

When you complete the calculator online form, you are not applying for aid.

Have these documents or amounts ready before you use the calculator:

  • The federal income tax returns filed by the student and the student's parent(s) from two years’ ago (For example: 2024-2025 estimator will use 2022 tax return information)

  • The W-2 forms and/or pay stubs with year-to-date information for the student and parent(s) from two years’ ago (For example: 2024-2025 estimator will use 2022 tax information)

  • Current value of assets

Note: The estimated values produced by the calculator are not the actual amounts students will be offered. All estimates are subject to the availability of funding. We encourage you to review the privacy policies prior to utilizing the calculator tool.

To begin the actual financial aid application process, complete a FAFSA or California Dream Act Application. The California Dream Act Application requires AB540 eligibility.
